TEN MEDFORB (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Halsey Decisions Harper In Top Amateur Contest Bv Dick Jowott DaUarln1 Rull HflltPV. filick Portland fisticuffer, lived up to advance notices, ana men some, last night as he punched out a jAnicfnn nimr finld Hill's hard lugging Bill Harper in the upper fiortion 01 the aouDie mam eveni n the Southern Oregon Boxing xiuh' amateur card at the armory. The shifty, clever negro from fkMnnn' motrnnnlic ninnPIMin middleweight in a recent Oregon AAU test, save naroer nine HhsnM tn InnH a fnf0prin0 WOl lop, although the southern Ore- gonian tried nara enougn. nara punching Halsey scored a no t knock-down in the first heat. Slugging Match A slugging match developed in the second round as Harper, try ing his best, waded in and the Gold Hill youth's mouthpiece sailed out of the ring during one exchange. It was a hotly scrapped fracas all the way with boys tiring in the final frame but with Harper losing the most steam. A member of the Police Ath letic league of Portland, the chocolate youngster was prob ably the classiest leather slinger that has appeared in the south ern Oregon Boxing club's series. Halsey won the pop"1" fighter trophy. Donovan Wolfe salvaged half - of the dual middleweight main event for this section of the state when he split-decisioned Ralph Colvin, another PAL glove ar tist, in the lower brush. The Phoenix youth had the reach and rammed his trustly left paw home frequently enough to gain the nod from Judges Joe McDuf fie and Norm Worthley. Referee Bill Berry picked Colvin. With both pugilists trying for a kill the final round wound up in a furious whirlwind exchange with Colvin getting in some solid pokes. Wolfe proved a good bat tler in the clinches. mt-Wlndup Bout A mismatch of the night was the semi-wlndup tussle between Killer Dick Adklns of Griffin Creek and Barney Harrle of Yreka. The murderous Adkins, taller and heavier, had the ad vantage all the way over the game Californian. Officials called a halt to the fray at the end of the second round. In the evening's special event Ernie Conrad of Ft. Jones out pointed C. W. Lacy, the fighting policeman of Medford. The box ers started slowly but picked up speed as the fight progressed. Conrad had a definite edge in the final spurt. Fans went away feeling one of the prelims was a "third" main event. Bogey (Circus) Bogart of Central Point and One Round Hogan of Table Rock tangled in haymaker and clinch affair that ended something like a grappling bout. Bogey's back hand style delighted the esti mated crowd of 600. Officials gave a split one point nod to Hosan but later reversed themselves and called the event a draw. King Winner Corky King of Oakland In an other preliminary won from Hugo Vernon who substituted for Johnny Hamilton. The match ended at 1:30 of the third stnnza when Referee Berry Judged Sure Spring, mninipr, fall, winter-always the fame order o! seasons. Tlie same too, vlien you order Seagram's 7 Crown!
